Useful note:
When installing new mechanical disk brakes, or mechanically actuated hydraulic disk brakes- we always recommend using non compression outer cables- such as Jagwire KEB-SL outer cable, as well as a new high quality inner cable. Metal cable ferrules are suggested. Also, ensure that when the outer cable is cut- the cut is clean and the internal is not distorted as to snag the inner cable.

Flat mount or post mount?

By Malcolm Cullen

17 Jun 2021

I'm building up a gravel bike on an old MTB frame, using Shimano DA 11-speed cable shifters. Are these post mount or flat mount calipers? My frame and forks are designed for post mount fittings (my disc rotors are 160mm diameter, front and back)

SJS Customer Service:

These are post mount; we would recommend SJS Cycles part number : 54929
